Wolves lead pack

The local basketball season is near its half way point and talk among local hoops fans centres on the Wolves being the last unbeaten team.

The side beat the Dominos Warriors last Thursday in a match-up of undefeated teams. Dwight O’Garro led the charge with 21 points, 24 rebounds and four assists. Collin Anglin was top scorer for Dominos with 18 points, three rebounds and three assists.

Wolves hope O’Garro continues his fine form on Thursday in the side’s next match. At 6:30pm the squad takes on the Silver Bullets at the Arts and recreation Center at Camana Bay.

Bullets can pose a threat if Josh Cotterell steps up. In the side’s dominant 97-81 win over Philippines two weeks ago Cotterell poured in 26 points and 10 boards.

Aside from the Wolves and the Silver Bullets the other match on Thursday is between the Bulls and team Philippines at 8:30pm.

Philippines have a solid 2-2 record after defeating the Esso Blazers 89-88 last Thursday. Eric Marcilla was the hero with 23 points (including five three-pointers) and four steals. Ding Briones chipped in 17 points, nine rebounds and four steals.

Perry Levy had a fantastic game for the Blazers with 33 points (including three treys), 10 rebounds, six steals and four assists. Bruce Reynolds added 18 points, nine rebounds, six assists and five steals.
